Poetic Theater Productions is honored to co-produce with BRIC The Brobot Adventure: Wrath of the Wackness, the follow up show to The Brobot Johnson Experience, where an alien Hip Hop android named Flobot Owens, travels through space and time to help humans be better humans. In Wrath of the Wackness, Flobot Owens, legendary Brobot MC, returns to “abduct” an audience of humans from Earth for a Sci-Fi Hip Hop dance party to eradicate the wacknesss that’s slowly plaguing his planet. The piece includes intricate live looping that combines verses with beatboxing, vocal melodies, and sound effects while mixing socially conscious lyrics in the genres of Hip Hop, Afrofuturism, and Afrobeat.
